Blogs from Jupiter

A girl friend of mine sent me a text message this morning asking me this question: “If you were in my situation, who would you rather choose? My new and young boyfriend whom I love so much but is unsure of what he wants in life, or my mature boyfriend of seven years who loves me so much?”

For this blog’s episode, let us name my girl friend Sasha (she wants me to write her life’s story… so Sasha (not her real name), I am starting to write your story), and the new boy friend as Dino, and the old boy friend as Vhon (not really that old coz Vhon is just about the same age as Sasha, with Sasha older by a few months. In Dino’s case, Sasha is the cougar, about eight years of age gap).

Sasha-Vhon is your ideal couple. They’ve been together since the age of the Flintstones. I know this couple even before they were together. Knowing Sasha, Sha abhors complacency and routine. Vhon is nice and mature, and stable and secure in all aspects. My conclusion is that she has become bored with the relationship. She told me that she still has feelings for Vhon but something is wrong, something is empty with the relationship. Vhon, on the other hand, is still so much in love with Sasha.

Vhon just discovered Sasha’s relationship with the younger Dino. Sasha, in fact, confessed her relationship with Dino because she wants to end her relationship with Vhon. Vhon was of course hurt, but he did not call it quits. He’s willing to fight for Sasha.

Sasha-Dino is your typical clandestine couple. Dino: the hot, young, temperamental, raw, brusque, your leather-jacket stubbled motor cycle guy; and Sasha: committed with someone but who is unhappy and bored with the relationship. They only get to meet in the odd places and during unholy hours. He has a bachelor’s pad. I also had the opportunity to see Dino, and reading them as a couple, I would say both are hot! It’s like both just came out from a porn movie.

I wouldn’t blame Sasha for falling in love with Dino. But I’ve asked her, what if Dino is just giving you a ride? And she said it doesn’t matter because she loves him and he makes her happy. Now, we have a problem here. I love my friend Sasha and I wouldn’t want her hurting in the end. I had the chance to talk with Dino, and figured out his feelings for Sasha. And yes, I believe Dino is also in love with Sasha. But then again, Dino is a still a kid. He would say things, a lot of things, but we’ve been there, and we know that all he’s saying are just empty promises. Not that we are turning Dino down but we know… we know… we were like Dino some ten years ago. All of us went through that stage. I also don’t know if Sasha can handle someone like Dino.

Sasha is also having a hard time letting go of Vhon. A seven year relationship is still seven years.
